Peter Jackson has lead a long interesting career in film making.Peter Jackson was born into a life of weirdness on Halloween 1961. An only child,he spent much of his childhood years with a super 8 camera just filming pretty much whatever happened to pop into view usually models. He developed an interest in horror movies during his teenage years growing up in New Zealand. He claims The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Evil Dead, Dawn of the Dead and the Hammer horror films as being big influences. Certainly we can see the interest in zombie flicks in Jacksons films such as Bad Taste and Dead Alive.
